Long Live the Communist Party of Palestine!

Palestinian Communist Party Expresses Solidarity with the Syrian Communist Party! (5.2.2025)

05/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

This reactionary, dark step is nothing but part of an imperialist plan aimed at dismantling the Syrian National Movement and aborting any attempt to establish a Democratic National Regime that serves the interests of the people and their working class. By restricting the Progressive Forces, this regime seeks to pave the way for colonial plunder of Syria’s resources and tighten its control over it in the interest of the imperialist powers and their agents in the region.

The Palestinian Communist Party condemns in the strongest terms this unjust and irresponsible decision, and affirms that Marxist-Leninist thought will remain rooted in Syria, and no force will be able to obliterate or eliminate it. The Palestinian Communist Party calls on our Syrian Communist comrades, and all patriots who believe in Syria’s unity and sovereignty, to unite and stand together to confront this fierce attack targeting Syrian Communists, the Syrian people, and their rich, pluralistic culture.

UK: Lucy Letby – Nurse DID NOT Murder Babies – NHS Cuts and Natural Causes to Blame! (5.2.2025)

05/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The Police should have passed the allegations back to the NHS for these Staff members to be “disciplined” for their continued persecution of Letby. This did not happen and instead the Police decided to independently pursue the case outside of NHS channels. This is how Letby ended-up in prison. Let’s get one thing straight – continued NHS cuts by successive governments since 1979 are killing people throughout the UK. Part of tihis drive to US-style private medicine is the withdrawal of proper and adequate medical care across the spectrum – including the care of babies (if you want to live – you must pay for the privilege). Letby worked in a department that looked after very ill – and already dying – babies. These were not healthy babies. Letby worked at the thin end of the wedge – where all the medical cuts are felt. The UK governments make these cuts knowing full-well people will die – and then blame the NHS Staff – who have to implement these cuts. This is just how Hitler’s regime worked – blame the victim.

Laos: Buddhist Temple – “Golden Ground of Ram” [ວັດໃໝ່ ສຸວັນນະພູມາຣາມ – Wat Mai Suvanna Bhumi Ram]

04/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Laos is a Socialist (Marxist-Leninist) State. Religious freedom is guaranteed as a private matter (through the separation of Temple and State) whilst Theravada Buddhism is the tradition religion of the people. Therefore, Laos may be considered a Buddhist-Socialist State – as the Buddhist Masters advocate Socialism and Dhamma in equal measure. In English, this old temple should be literally known as the “New Temple” – due to its relatively recent repair (just over 200-years) – by Royal Command. As to the Pali name – it translates as “Golden Ground of Ram” – “Ram” is an avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu. Throughout Southeast Asia and beyond, ancient Brahmanism spread far and wide from India – before the rise and spread of Buddhism. By the time Buddhism arrived in the region – Brahmanism was already in-place – with the Buddha being associated with Vishnu (even in modern India – many contemporary Hindus count the Buddha as an incarnation of Vishnu [Ram] sent to earth to encourage vegetarianism).

Cuba: Soviet Sacrifice at Stalingrad Remembered! (3.2.2025)

03/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Soviet troops not only completely surrounded and annihilated the German Sixth Army, but also demonstrated to the world that the Nazi military machine was not invincible. The precisely planned Operation Uranus struck at the enemy’s most vulnerable flanks and allowed more than 300,000 Wehrmacht soldiers to be encircled. No strategy of Hitler’s could save them.

The echo of Stalingrad resonated far beyond the battlefield. It inspired the peoples of Europe in their fight against fascism and pushed the Western Allies to intensify the opening of the second front. The ruined city, defended street by street, echelon by echelon, became a symbol of the indomitable will of the Soviet people.

Library of Congress“Dead Horse of Confederate Colonel; both killed at Battle of Antietam,” by Alexander Gardner

CSA: Piles of Thread-Bare Confederates at Antietam [Sharpsburg] – Notes on Their Sacrifice! (31.1.2025)

02/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The Union Army paid the farmer $1 per dead Confederate body and the farmer made $60 out of the deal. He dug a new well in a different place for the cost of $2 – making a wartime profit of $58. No one knows the names of these Confederate soldiers – and if it was not for a report being made by the Union soldiers concerned – no one would know about these men today. Of course, there was great bravery on both sides – but the spin placed on the war by the winners has skewed how the Confederacy is viewed today. These Confederate men (and boys) advanced into the Union fire with the utmost discipline and determination. They believed 100% in their cause – which was for the freedom of their individual countries (termed “States”). At the time, this war was not only about slavery – but has been made ONLY about slavery since 1865. Many believed the federalisation of the United States was a betrayal of the 1776 War of Independence – and nothing short of a great evil!
